Summer Skincare for All Skin Types : Skincare & Regimes !!!

Firstly ,

HAPPPYYYY HOLIDAYS 

To all my Lovely Readers . Wish you have a Great Holiday ahead and Enjoy as much as you can.

But every Season has it's Own Pros and Cons especially for Girls , and Summers are a Nightmare for all Combination/Oily Skinned ones . While it is a Boon for Normal and Dry Skinned Beauties , as your Skin remains Hydrated and obtains the Moisture it's been missing the Whole of Winters . 

So , today's Post is dedicated to all those ladies who are searching for a Summer Skincare routine and Everyday Regime . Let's goooooooo...... !!!

EXFOLIATE REGULARLY 

This ensures Dead Skin doesn't Clog your Pores. Keeping it Hydrated is the Most Important. Summer heat takes away all the Water from your Body. Drink Lots of Water . Keep your Skin Hydrated with External Hydration with the help of Toners after Cleansing, Exfoliation etc. No matter how hot it maybe , do not Skip Moisturiser . If your Skin is Oily use Gel Based but DO NOT skip it .After Cleansing , your Skin needs external moisturisation . Always use a SPF to prevent Sun Damage . If Damage is Done , soothe your Skin with Calming Face Pack or Mask to Prevent burning or Red Marks. 

For Indian Skin 

Use a broad Spectrum Sunscreen with both UVA & UVB protection and at least SPF 15. If on Vacation or Outdoors , usage of Sunscreen with SPF 30 is highly Recommended. Some good Sunscreens are 

1. Lotus Herbals Matte Gel SPF 50 

2. Lakme Sun Expert Lotion SPF 50

3. VLCC Matte Look Sunscreen Lotion SPF 30 PA+++

4. Garnier Sun Control Daily Moisturiser SPF 15

5. Neutrogena  Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunblock SPF 50+

Wash Your Face 

Wash your face at least 6 times a Day with Plenty of Cold Water to help Soothe and Calm the Skin . Follow this with applying a Mud Packs . Some good Mud Packs I would suggest,

1. Himalaya Herbals Clarifying Mud Face Pack 

2. FabIndia Neem Tulsi Purifying Mud Pack

3. VLCC Mud Face Pack

4. Lotus Herbals Mud Skin Whitening Face Pack

Use Toner 

It's important to keep your pores closed and skin cool by using a Toner . Some recommended Toners are , 

1. Dabur Gulabari Gulab Jal

2. Oriflame Love Nature Toners

3. Netrogena Blackhead Eliminating Toner

4. Biotique Cucumber Water 

5. The Body Shop Tea Tree Cleansing Toner

6. Lotus Herbals Basiltone Clarifying and Balancing Toner

7. FabIndia Tea Tree Skin Toner

STAY HYDRATED

Your Body tends to lose a lot of moisturiser in the Summer, so it's important to regularly Replenish the water . Drink at Least 8-10 glasses of water everyday and other Liquids like Juice and Shakes , which will help your Skin stay Soft and Moisturised as well.

Go for Water Based Moisturisers 

Don't make the mistake of Skipping the Moisturiser altogether as it's essential to maintain Hydration on your Skin. However if you find your Regular Moisturiser too Oily , go for a Water Based one . Some good moisturisers in the Market are,

1. Lotus Herbals Alpha Moist Alpha Hydroxy Skin Oil Free

2. Neutrogena Oil Free Moisturiser

3. Lacto Calamine Classic

4. Garnier Essential Care Moisturiser

5. Lotus Herbal Acne Gel Tea Tree

6. FabIndia Vitamin E Skin Hydrating Cream for Oily Skin

EXFOLIATIONS/SCRUBBING

More than Rest of the Year , it's really important to Exfoliate your Skin in the Summer to remove Dead Skin Cells and improve Blood Circulation to the Face. Some good exfoliations/scrubs available in India 

1. VLCC Skin Defense Walnut Scrub

2. Clinique Exfoliating Scrub

3. Himalaya Herbals Gentle Exfoliating Daily Apricot Scrub

4. Garnier Pure Exfoliating Face Wash

5. L'Occitane Exfoliating Rice Powder

6. Himalaya Purifying Neem Scrub 

FOLLOW THESE REGIMES REGULARLY

1.Cleansing 

2. Toning 

3. Moisturising 

SKIN TYPES

1. Oily/Combination 

 Use Cleansing Gels , Toner and Face Lotions mentioned above. Oil free formulas would help skin steer clear of Acne and Breakouts.

2. Dry/Mature 

 Use only Cleanser and Moisturiser. Even Cream based would work well for this Skin type. 

3. Normal Skin

 Use any Formula Cream/Gel/Foam Based Cleansers , Toner and Moisturisers . As this Skin type is well Hydrated , all formulas would give good results.

All the Above Mentioned Products are usually available everywhere in India and Online , I have used a Few and only the Best & Effective ones are Recommended , keeping the Quality and Budget in Mind . I would Love to Share some Home Made Face Masks, Packs, Scrubs and Cleansers in my Next Post.

I hope this helps you in Making a Proper Summer Skin Routine , would also love to talk about Summer makeup and Sweat Free Makeup next time . Till then , Stay Tuned with my Blog .

Cheers,
